Re: Skype Beta, No log in screen, Just skype?1

The problem with login screen in 5.7 Beta is caused by the same reasons as it was the case in 5.5/5.6. Your Internet Explorer is not properly setup to execute Java Script and/or ActiveX. If you use the new shortcut with the /legacylogin switch, then you will be able to login to Skype but there might still be problems with some functions, like e.g. adding new contacts.

The new shortcut with the /legacylogin switch has the same effect, i.e. that the “old” legacy login window is activated instead of the new one, which is created by the index.html webpage in the "%programdata%\Skype\Apps\login" folder. If the login folder is removed or renamed, it will be recreated whenever the original shortcut is pressed or Skype is updated.
